LifeHacker/Consumerist are again promoting the use of a product without fully disclosing the risks of it. They are announcing that Mint.com is now out of beta and available for public use. See my blog post ere about the dangers of Mint.com
Don't, get me wrong. I love both Life Hacker and the Consumerist, and they usually have great articles and products. But to not inform users of the inherit risks of "putting all your eggs in a single basket" is just irresponsible.
Edit:
My mistake, they are not out of beta, they are 4 weeks into their public beta.
